Bradley Cooper admits he might not be alive if he hadn't become a dad in emotional moment just days after weeping over 'missing' Leonard Bernstein


The actor has admitted he is not sure he would be alive if he hadn't become a dad.

The Hangover star, 49, welcomed his daughter Lea with his model ex-girlfriend Irina Shayk in 2017 and explained how raising his little girl prompted him to change his life for the better and put his previous battles with addiction behind him for good. The emotional revelation comes after Bradley was roasted by fans earlier this week after bursting into tears over 'missing' late Maestro composer Leonard Bernstein - despite never meeting him Bradley went on to insist he changed his life because he wanted to give Lea a more stable upbringing than his own after his early years were blighted by alcoholism in his family.
